oops, forgot about gower the power Ash, my mistake !!
Terrorwit, i love the way your thinking on this, i have a feeling though that his focus was placed firmly on the Spurs job, in fact i can out do your conspiracy theory here!!
Rodgers was told the spurs job was his when Harry got the England job, hence after January there was a major love-in between redknapp and brenden in the media and not long after that brenden started dipping questions and being a little bit vague, he certainly started distancing himself from us and the fans. When the England Job went to Hodgson, Daniel Levy still wanted rodgers but then had to get harry out the door, i beleive rodgers was told the spurs job would still be his but instead of waiting for redknapp to finally get the chop he flapped and agreed to the Liverpool job instead.
This then totally pissed of Daniel Levy, who was too far down the road to do a u-turn with redknapp and was left with another manager to find,step in AVB! as a way of getting his own back on rodgers Spurs came in and give brenden a dose of his own medicine by taking gylfi from under liverpools nose..lets be honest,we were all suprised by that one.
I also think Spurs will offer Joe mega money to sign for them instead of Liverpool, and Spurs will do it as f$ck you to rodgers for leaving them high and dry after already telling him he was lined up for the job.
Intresting theory even if i do say so myself..

it also stands up when you consider Huw Jenkins started looking for a new manager in March !! lots went on behind the scences if you ask me, there was something too sweet with redknapp and rodgers, i think both men thought they knew their next job and the English FA blew it all apart, brenden then thought he missed his big chance and snatched at the Liverpool job when it came up, pissing off spurs who were ready to appoint him regardless .
